Spoilers?

Um, the game has been out 2 days. Some of us haven't even had a chance to pick it up yet. The Table of Contents for the character is effing full of spoilers. Shouldn't there be a freaking buffer zone before spoilers are posted on the damn wiki? 173.30.230.156 00:42, 8 November 2012 (EST)

Your surprised a website dedicated to giving all info had spoilers? I'm not trying to be rude, it just seems like commen sence to avoid major pages shortly after release. 67.219.81.18

I agree with the anon above me. This website is a wiki, so naturally, your going to run up on spoilers; and with this wiki being very quick to upload new information, your going to find more spoilers here than your average Halo site. I would suggest avoiding the site all together if you don't want to encounter spoilers, because users are going to be uploading lots of information related to Halo 4 now that the game has been released.

Logic Plague?

I haven't been able to play the game yet, only watch a playthrough of the campaign. Do the audio data logs make it explicit that it's the Gravemind's logic plague causing Cortana's radical shift? Because from the campaign itself, it seems more the case that this is a continuation of Rampancy, particularly the god-like delusions part. -- Qura 'Morhek ^{The Autocrat} ^{of Morheka} 07:38, 29 October 2015 (EDT)

I haven't found anything to indicate she's affected by the logic plague. Given how some of Cortana's final words in Halo 4 are, "Most of me is down there," Domain!Cortana is almost certainly an almagamation of the original's rampant personality fragments, logic plague or not. Alas, Halo 5 never brings this up in any fashion. --Our answer is at hand.

I thought entering the Domain eliminated her rampancy? Cortana is essentially the reincarnation of Mendicant Bias, yea?--DC Ambrose (talk) 09:44, 29 October 2015 (EDT)

If I may offer my opinion, I think that it's more simple than that. Granted, I've only seen walkthroughs, but Cortana only became like that after uploading herself into the Domain, right? What do we know of the Domain? It's a Precursor construct. I think the Domain might have corrupted Cortana the same way the Gravemind corrupted the Didact and turned her just as megalomaniacal as those two. All to further the Precursor's / Gravemind's plan to make all life suffer. Either that, or a combination of the Gravemind's torture and the Domain's influence. What do you think of this hypothesis? 78.20.131.40 13:42, 29 October 2015 (EDT)
